I have done well

if no one else will say it to me

it doesn't matter 

above all else to thine own self be true

and I say truly 

Meena you have done well

you coached your son for psle

sure some days you were hard on him, monstrous even scary

but on balance you were good to him

you encouraged him

set aside time to work with him 

even when you had your office work to see to ans akshaya to look after

you have done well meena

Good job 

you have done well meena

you looked after akshaya as best as you could 

listening to her 

finding alternate care when nec

not afraid to explore aspects

you have done well meena 

you wrote the 1st paper largely yourself 

the second paper entirely yourself 

came up with slides

met colleagues on concept for dialogue.

planted the seed for a new exciting idea ..you have done well 

sure you have miles to go before you sleep 

but 

all will be well. 

you will do well.

what triggered this post 

I said saro should give me a prize and he said he'd see after the results 

he was only half joking you know

I care more about the process he the product 

I'm the teacher he's the engineer 

figures 

anyway 

akshaya feels she may get some medal or something next year for going thru with exams despite everything 

I hope she does 

but even if she doesn't 

she's a champion already 

maybe we should get her something to encourage her
